It has such a shape. The liquid medicine 4 is supplied to the central ejection hole 2
31, through the slot 24, through the central through hole 220 and through the needle hole 210, and injected into the patient's body.

The plunger means 3 includes a plunger 31 reciprocating in the syringe cylinder 11 and a syringe shaft 10.
Inclined socket 3 deflected rearward from plunger front face 310 of plunger 31 in a generally arched manner having a centrally defined longitudinal axis 321 deflected from 0 by an acute angle A.
2 so as to converge rearward from the plunger front surface 310 so as to communicate with the inclined socket 32, and to incline the hollow needle portion 21 when the needle assembly 2 is drawn into the hollow inner diameter portion 10. A guide port 33 is provided at a position where the needle head 23 is projected linearly, and is formed at the front end so that the needle head 23 is slidably guided rearward and passed therethrough to engage with the inclined socket 32. A coupling member 36 is formed at a rear end of the plunger rod 35 connected to the plunger 31 by being coupled to a concave portion 34 recessed at the rear of the plunger 31 and a rod 35 for firmly grasping and using. When the needle assembly 2 is attached to the rod handle 37 and the syringe means 1, the plunger 31 and the plunger 31 are normally aligned with the needle shaft 200 and the syringe shaft 100. It includes a plunger shaft 300 which is defined longitudinally in the central portion of the rod 35.

In the case where the plunger 31 is used for injection using a syringe according to the present embodiment, the plunger 31 is pressed forward and passes through the hollow needle portion 21 into the patient as shown in FIG. The liquid medicine 4 is carried. After medicine 4 is discharged,
The needle head 23 is engaged with an inclined socket 32 in a plunger 31 which is propelled by a rod 35 in the direction of arrow D in the figure as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 7, when the plunger 31 and the connected needle assembly 2 are pulled in the direction of arrow R in the figure, the needle assembly 2 automatically tilts, and as shown in FIG. When the body 2 attempts to protrude forward again, the top end 211 is bent without protruding to the outside and is attached to the shoulder 13a to prevent the user, the cleaning staff, or the medical staff from injuring the puncture. Be disturbed.

According to this embodiment, it is superior to the conventional safety syringe and has the following advantages. 1. The hollow needle portion 21 is connected to the connecting portion 212 in the direction of arrow T in FIG.
Is rotated so as to be detachably connected to the shank portion 22, whereby the female groove 214 in the connecting portion 212 and the protrusion 223 on the stem portion 222 of the shank portion 22 are engaged with each other. Needle section 21 can be conveniently installed in syringe means 1. The shank 22 has a bar 225 engageable with any of the wedge-shaped extensions 126, which allows the hollow needle 21 to be inserted into the shank 22 as shown in FIGS. When rotating and connecting in the direction of the arrow T, loosening inside the syringe means 1 is prevented, and the shank portion 22 can be fixed to the syringe means 1.

2. A variety of needles of different sizes can additionally be interchangeably mounted on the syringe means 1.

3. The structure is simple, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

4. When the needle 21 in the syringe cylinder 11 is tilted at a larger tilt angle, the top end 211 of the needle 21 will be in a plurality of positions, namely the shoulder 13a, the cylindrical socket 12
4 and the annular groove 122 prevent further accidental re-projection of the needle to the outside, thereby ensuring safe handling of the retracted needle.

5. The frusto-conical shank portion 22 of the needle assembly 2 is propelled by the plunger 31 to enhance stable engagement with the through hole 12a in the sleeve portion 12 and to push the liquid medicine into the patient's body. When the injection is done, it helps the injection work smoothly throughout the injection.

The present invention can be variously modified without departing from the spirit and technical scope of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a needle assembly 2 which is provided longitudinally in the syringe means 1 so as to be aligned with the syringe shaft 100 is adapted for subcutaneous injection. The needle assembly 2 is not limited to the above embodiment, and may be modified so as to be eccentrically provided on the syringe means 1 so as to be parallel to the syringe shaft 100 for intravenous injection.
